- "As you can see, the de-programming took, and his brain has been restored to its original, questionable, state.»"
"Good one, Dok. But the joke's on the First Order. You gotta be educated before you can be re-educated. - ―Dok-Ondar and Seezelslak
Seezelslak was an Azumel male bartender who ran Seezelslak's Cantina on the planet Batuu. While he did not have many customers, Seezelslak had a penchant for storytelling, including a favorite involving the local Jedi temple, Yoda and a Padawan named Ady Sun'Zee.[2] In 34 ABY[5] he had an encounter with Mubo and his former repair technician, who later became Seezeslak's new drink item hunter out in the Batuu Wilds after his old one was lost. Seezelslak also had a problem with porgs that were rehabilitated in his cantina by Chewbacca of the Millennium Falcon.[2]
When Lieutenant Gauge of the First Order Stormtrooper Corps established a re-education facility on Batuu, Seezelslak was captured and became its first patient, working to turn him into a loyal servant of the regime. However, the repair technician raided the base to rescue Seezelslak from brainwashing and destroy the facility. After his recovery, Seezelslak joked that, because he had never received an education, the programming would never have stuck with him.[4]
Behind the scenes
Seezelslak was portrayed by Bobby Moynihan in the virtual reality experience Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge.[6]

I had a blast on this project, lots of fun acting, blender time and a ton of drawing, my happy place. Here is Seezelslak to give you a quest." (backup link) (screenshots 1, 2, 3, 4)
